I thought it was a pretty good show, and one I'll continue to watch (at least for now), but it really didn't feel like a Joss Whedon show to me. Where was the witty banter and the sharp dialogue? I'm not a big fan of Eliza Dushku, and I don't actively dislike her or anything, but unfortunately for me she's been permanently "imprinted" as Faith the Vampire Slayer, so much so that seeing her in any role is like, "Hey, there's Faith dressed up like a librarian." (It's not limited to her, either; David Carradine is permanently imprinted in my mind as Kwai Chang Caine from "Kung Fu," and William Katt is forever Ralph Hinckley from "The Greatest American Hero." I can't see any of them in any other role without getting that "weird" vibe in my head because they're not acting the way they're "supposed" to.)
Hopefully the series will improve, and become more of the "Whedonesque" show I was expecting. Right now, it doesn't seem very "Whedonny."
And, just to throw this out there as a "wouldn't it be cool?" prediction: Wouldn't it be cool if, should the series last long enough, the FBI agent finally gets the proof he needs, shows up at the Dollhouse (alone) trying to take them down, and ends up getting captured, personality-wiped, and an Active himself, with no memory of his prior life as an FBI agent out to expose the Dollhouse?
